A WICHITA DAY,

Yesterday was another one Of those rush.
ing days for Wichita The streets were
lively with teams by o'clock in the morn
ing, and by 10 o'clock in some places drivers
were compelled to hasten slowly. The
great rush continued until late in the
afternoon. Douglas avenue, from the
river to Fifth avenue, and Main street from
Douglas to Central were not wide enough to
accommodate the travel. As the business
wagons and turnouts increase the side streets
are coming into use. Second street from
Main to to Topeka and Lawrence Is becom-
ing almost as familiar with traffic as il it
were full fedged business street
The wonderful travel seems to have reached
the point of overflow and the side site cts
serve as an outlet.
The sidewalks were thronged with people.
It was no uncommon thing to see pedes-
trian walking along the CURLING if he
wanted to 60 faster than the move
Of the crowd. Sometimes he would look
like he was just little angry over the situa-
ton. A fellow from Kansas City, who by
the way, Is paying his first visit to Wichita,
got behind on a date yesterday and was try
ing to make up part Of lost time when he
was compelled to skip along the curbing.
To put it mildly he was mad. He said
he was not used to living In
city where sixteen and eighteen foot
sidewalks would not acc ommodate the peo-
pie.
On general principals it's not a difficult
task to fish out a stranger. He invariably looks
for the end Of the procession, but as he can't
see across the continent, he fails to see the
starting or finish. Joe Reynolds, who
ought to be acquainted with the city,
to some extent having made visits here for
four years, but IS he has not been here for
six months he got out on the street yesterday
and innocently inquired il Grover was
swinging around another circle. Thatit was
common every day Wishita, or common
everyday any city he could scarcely belirve.

CITY SCHOOL MATTERS.

In talking to Prof. Chidester. yesterday.
superintendent Of city schools, he stated that
the attendance now was greater than ever
before. The roll shows $500 students. The
corps of teachers has been increased to fifty
seven and everything working smoothly as
clock work
The school board at its next meeting will
probably tackle a much mooted question
taking in the proposed school In the northeast
part of the city. AS viii be remembered the
citizens Of that section have offered the city
the use Of a building for school purposes il
the school board will furnish teachers. 1. is
claimed by some that the building
IS not in the city bat short
distap e outside the city limits. The city
engineers report on the question places the
bGildiag outside the city limits, but the Rev.
Parker insists that there is mistake and
that the bu lding is in the city limits. The
mater vii be discussed before the beard q,
its next meeting.
In the n eantime the people Of the north
east are becoming very anxious for school.
They hope tie building is in thu city anc
they can have the best of school advantages
a. leas' a. eoci as any section of the city
Il the building is not in the city 1t is though'
that the board viii not furnish teachers.

ADJUSTMENTS,
CRAWFORD.

| For nearly three hours the large audience
joyed the many beauties and laughable
drollieries Of Rice's Beautiful Evangeline.' u
Mr. Tillotson's is an excellent company and
comprises people of decided ability. One
moment they would have their audience
convulsed with laughter at their absurdities
and comicalities, and the next in q
suspense of admiration at the
wonderful beauty of the exquisitetcostumes,
shapely forms, pretty faces and magnificent
stage pictures. Miss Alice Butler made a
| beauteous Evangeline; her costumes were
sup:rb, her acting excellent. She sang in a
Gear soprano voice, and her duets with Miss
| Boyd, who took the part of Gabriel, were
sweet and pleasing.
NJ S. Boyd's 81 like it," captured the house
and brought encore after encore. George
Fortescue. who was Of the original caste,
played Catherine, and was, as he has been
since the burlesque first came out, great.
James s. Maff1tt as the Lone Fisherman,
| was applauded in all his droll acts.
The LIE Blance Of Charles W. Butler
was good and Messrs. Udell and Miles receiv-
ed storms of applause in the heifer act
! Mr.. Reynolds Dietrich and Mr.. Wade's
| Chief of Police were both very clever. The
miners scene which opened the second act
| was one of enchantment, and the Amazon
march in the same act was one Of the most
beautiful things seen upon the stage here.
The performance will be repeated tonight
and will no doubt draw as large an audience
as last night.

berg presents the finest and most costly set

are deserving Of special mention. His
exquisite touch and neatness Of execution
proclaim him master of the instrument. If
you want to laugh, you should see Mr.. Riley
and friend Mr. Casey.

"B0odle" Labor Men.

There may be some Of the same kind in

Leader, July2l
A Labor-democrat like Congressman
Martin A. Foran is sure to land on the
Doodle side at last. The Standard Oil
Company has captured the ex cooper and
and trade-unionist of Cleveland.
1t is an interesting little deal, and if
the "Union Labor" Party and its men are
in it, the end for them can only be sui
eide. While we do not agree with the
water and mush policy of the Union La
Dor Party of Ohio, we have hoped, and
still do, for better things than a bargain
with man and ticket sustained by the
senatorial representative of the Standard
Oil Cor pany, and trust il is not possible
for the men who fought so gallant fight
as did the labor men of Cincinnati to join
with the murderous combine who are
among the chief supporters of Pinker-
toms pretorian guards-the assassins and
rufians of the coal and oil barons. 1t is
not possible for honest wage-workers to
cooperate with the openly corrupt and
corrupting purchasers of legislative votes
and the suborners of Judicial decisions.
Mr.. Foran may do these things. 1t is but
natural that the labor 'leader" who es-
chews independent political action" and
for the sake of political power affiliates
with either of the old parties, as Mr.. Fo-
ran has done with the democracy, should
end in conspiracy and bargain-making
with the capitalistic pirates who plunder
labor, and the monopolistic robbers who
filch from the whole community. All
these manifestations only teach united
labor to stand firm and steadfast by their
platform and their party, eschewing all
halfway interpretations and all combina-
tions and barwains.

The Circular of d. 4. 126.-This dis
trict has sent out long circular headed
as follows: "why the general officers
should be deposed"-signed by John Nor
rison and the other officers of the sus-
pended D. A. No. 126. The circular con-
cludes thus: "This is not our fight alone.
District 126 has led the vanguard in the
truggle against official despotism, and it
devolves y h every loyal local and dis
trict asss bly to join hands with us so
that w NAV rid the organization of the
reigniAs despots. A blow has been struck
at us. You may be the next. Therefore
we say take action and speak out quickly.
The time has come for those who think
as we do to act, and place themselves in
communication with district assembly
l26, SO that we may accomplish the object
just set forth. Let us know what action
you take"
